gh gitignore

Tip

You can now use the gitignore api endpoint and a gh alias to achieve the same result as this project:

$ gh alias set --shell .gitignore 'gh api -X GET /gitignore/templates/"$1" --jq ".source"'
$ gh .gitignore Terraform >> .gitignore

This gh extension enables developers to quickly bootstrap new projects with the appropriate .gitignore through a CLI interface.

Install

gh extension install garnertb/gh-gitignore

Examples

Bootstrap a node project with the nodejs gitignore.

gh gitignore node > .gitignore
